On ‘The Edge’ | Virus show takes audiences on dreamlike journey

Audiences have only a handful of opportunities left to catch “The Edge,” Virus Theater’s latest original play which premiered Friday night. The show continues at El Sol Theatre, 406 N. Bullard St., tonight through Wednesday, with 2 p.m. matinees today and Sunday and 7:30 p.m. performances tonight and on Nov. 17-18. This production continues Virus Theater’s decades-long tradition of practicing devised theater, an approach that begins without a script. First, an ensemble is gathered. Then, based on the cast and various exercises in collective imagining, characters and stories emerge. It’s a collaborative process that cast members said brings challenges and many creative rewards. This style of theater-making has been a part of Virus Theater’s DNA since the beginning, back in 1997. Teresa Dahl-Bredine founded the nonprofit theater group shortly after studying theater at college and returning to Silver City, where she grew up.
